Typically, it's difficult to envision the contrast in sensor sizing purely by viewing specifications. The photograph below will give you a much better sense of the sensor sizing in the S8000 and WB800F.

Plainly, the 2 cameras posses the exact same sensor measurements but not the same megapixels. You should anticipate the Samsung WB800F to render greater detail using its extra 2 Megapixels. Greater resolution will also make it easier to crop images somewhat more aggressively. The older S8000 will be disadvantaged in sensor technology.
